You don't have to. It's just as easy to do it during the install. But if
you want, you can.
Anyway I would propose a slightly different table:
swap 127MB
root 100MB (my / is only 80MB and there are still more than 30MB free)
opt 100MB (KDE installs by default in there)
usr 900MB
home 200MB (since this is where your personal files are)
